Copyright, 1914 An inefficient officer is a swindle on the public. If an officer finds that his knowledge and ability to command are not equal to his rank, he should spare no pains to learn his work, and if, after diligent study and application, he finds that he cannot acquire the necessary knowledge and ability to command, and still retains his rank, he willingly becomes a sharer in the swindle.
